I could at least put together a web app that can serve as a master share list and payment spreadsheet exporter that LabRat and grnbrg can use to prevent stuff like this happening in the future.
Could you code up a CEX.IO style set up or at least lead a team that can? CEX.IO desperately needs some competition and I think we have the resources and need to give it some..... lets turn a problem into an opportunity
I could put down the framework for share count management pretty easily, but it'd be a much greater amount of work to get that system up to share trading, and then significantly more to bring it to the level of polish that CEX.IO have. I imagine their development team is reasonably large.
I might take a look around and see if there's some existing framework I can build on top of, or at least find a system with everything already thought out, so I can use that as a model to create our own. Security and reliability would be my biggest worries if we were to try and get our own platform running.
It should be easily doable with shell script, csv output from the spread sheet, bitcoind, and the amount of BTC to payout. It could even have some safety checks to make sure nobody fat-fingers some extra digits, output the results for review, and Confirm. I'd use a linux live cd/usb, so the system is only online when payments are being made. I'm kind of shocked this simple mech isn't in place. This is a digital currency, humans are not needed for the maths lol.
Any idea when we might get those announcement clarifications from LR? or is that keyboard shortage in Miami more epic then we thought?

hehe
